Kirchhoff’s current law

In 1847, G. R. Kirchhoff extended Ohm’s law with two important statements that are referred to as Kirchhoff’s laws. The first law, known as Kirchhoff’s current law, states the following: The algebraic sum of all the currents entering and leaving a junction is equal to 0.

runway threshold markings

Runway threshold markings identify to the pilot the beginning of the runway that is safe and available for landing. Runway threshold markings begin 20 ft from the runway threshold itself. Runway threshold markings consist of two series of white stripes, each stripe 150 ft in length and 5.75 ft in width, separated about the centerline …

runway edge lights

Runway edge lighting systems outline the edge of runways during nighttime and reduced visibility conditions. Runway edge lights are classified by intensity, high intensity (HIRL), medium intensity (MIRL), and low intensity (LIRL). LIRLs are typically installed on visual runways and at rural airports. MIRLs are typically installed on visual runways at larger airports and on …

lux level calculation

It is often desirable to calculate the amount of light that will result from a design. While seldom required in residential design, lighting calculations are critical to the success of lighting designs in most nonresidential buildings— schools, offices, stores, and most other commercial and institutional building types. In modern design, it is common to talk …
